my personal view is that content wins out every time – ie if your content is worth reading then people will handle any reasonable load time.
When the internet was slow, caching, minimisation and other tricks were worth spending days on to get right.
I’ve not bothered caching forums pages on nay of my sites, although I do cache other pages.
I’d suggest you try forums with cache switched on and off, and see if it makes any difference to load time that is noticeable – run each at least 10 times and total the time, and indeed to content changing.
so has the account you are trying to see the dashboard>forums/topics/replies got a keymaster role set ?
what is your bbpress role in
dashboard>users
if they are not showing, then it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.
Plugins
If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

great – and thanks for posting the solution
This plugin will let you do this
Private groups
in the settings, create an ‘admin’ group and a ‘user’ group.
use the topic permissions to set this
and then for that forum (you can leave the others alone) , just assign that forum to the admin and user groups and save. You can then use the topic permissions to allow admins to post, but users just to view.
Finally use the ‘assign groups to roles’ tab to give admins the ‘admin’ group and subscribers the ‘user’ group
ok, activity is a buddypress item I think – I know it is crossover, but you might do better there
https://buddypress.org/support/
can you say what you mean by ACTIVITY feed?
wow – thanks for posting that solution – I s’pose something has to take precedence, if I get a moment I’ll look to see where this is selected
ok, scheduling works fine on my test site, so not sure what to suggest next.
I think you are really looking for some wordpress training. bbpress just uses wordpress login, and the pop up or tooltip type help text you are after is well beyond any free help, and would require extensive site specific coding – sorry.
suspect it might be a another plugin that is adding these (possibly one of mine, but hopefully not!)
so the standard fault finding applies

so how is it visible, as a menu item?
and what method in item 3 of this are you using
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
I presume this is the reply topic ‘content’, and do you just mean the topic or all the replies to it as well?
great – glad you are fixed
If you set the forums to ‘private’ then this is what you will get, or have I misunderstood?
hmmm… sorry I don’t use buddypress, so have no experience in how it handles categories vs. forums.
only keymasters can add other keymasters, so easiest is to get one of your designers to make you a keymaster
